Re: What's the most efficient way to store variables?

PS. For some weird reason, you might want to create a separate namespace for all choice-related variables. I'm not sure what is the properest way to set namespaces in Ren'Py, but this should work (for Python 3, i.e. Ren'Py 8.): init python: from types import SimpleNamespace c = SimpleNamespace() # T...

Re: What's the most efficient way to store variables?

Imagine I have a Yes/No question (1) and I want the game to remember that answer, but then I have another Yes/No question (2) and then another one (3) and so on, and I want to save those answers as well. Eventually the game has 100 Yes/No questions, each of them stored individualy, so I'd end with ...

Re: Outlining only certain text in dialog

When I do this, the outline doesn't appear and I'm led to believe that this is because I need to also tell the text to physically have an outline to colour. However, I can find nothing about how to add an outline to just specific words rather than for all text in the game. You can add transparent o...

Re: Pause without skipping the animation(effect)

I want to let the player watch the forest background slowly change to a black background, also can't skip it. I used 'hard pause' to stop the player from skipping and this seems to work well, but still have got a little problem. Even though I've used hard pause, I can still skip the dizolve3 effect...

Hi, I'm trying to add a button to a screen using DynamicDisplayable, but for some reason, the button's hover properties does not work on mouse over(clicking the button still executes its function as normal though).

Re: Game is stuck in a Screen scene?

I wouldn't bother with any of that, just don't call the screen, instead use show screen. label start: scene credits show screen discord_hover Yeah, it's an option, but then players would instantly fall through to Main Menu with any accidental click or Skipping, and couldn't go back with rollback.

That worked, but still I can save the game from the little bar on the bottom of the screen. Any way to disable that? You can use Displayable Inspector: point that little bar with the mouse and press Shift-i . You could see that it's screen quick_menu . Examine the file screens.rpy looking for "...

Re: Inventory Help

For every item you can set an imagebutton (or a hotspot if you use imagemap ). Set conditions (with "if") whether to show for each of those buttons or hotspots. For example, if on map1 you have to find - a case located at pos (100, 800) - and a book located at pos (700, 700): # Set that yo...

Re: Problems with Image/Video Colors

I'm having some trouble with image/video discoloration in Ren'Py. PS. Or could there be some problem with the color profile of the images? E.g. they are saved without color profiles, but Ren'Py assumes by default some other color profile than what they used? See e.g. https://photo.stackexchange.com...
